It appears he just wants the ring and not the the cover.
He does need to make sure of 30 or 50 amp.
50 Amp. I do not know how to replace the ring only. I will need the replace the complete cover.
Is the ring REALY necessary? How many do not use (tighten) the ring?
ON 50 amp, the pins will lock into place. The ring is just a way to help keep out moisture. Doug
PS, not really needed. That is why you insert and twist
Doug I know you are our resident guru. but I strongly disagree that the ring is not needed. The ring keeps the plug sucure in the socket it keeps the plug tight. When the plug gets loose you get arching , scorching, heat, all symptoms of a bad connection.
The ring keeps the plug tight and secure.
